Trump has stated that he believes they could be false accusations. I got to say, if he's using "4-d chess" here, that was kind of a smart strategy. He's playing good cop and might compel the left to take a position against Biden just to spite Trump.

Originally posted by JimL View PostThat's just dumb, sean. Trump could hardly say otherwise himself with all the accussations against him. He'll leave that dirty work up to Sean Hannity and Rush Limbaugh, the propaganda arm of the republican party.
Nah bro. Trump is the king of trolls. He would love nothing better than to stir the pot of controversy and goad Biden like he does to everyone all the time. It's clearly a strategy. He's adding salt to the wound by saying a woman who claims she was sexually assaulted isn't credible. The guy that the left absolutely abhors is literally mirroring what they themselves are doing to this poor woman. It's brilliant.

It can be weak evidence or strong evidence, it isn't proof, which is why I wouldn't have convicted him criminally, even though I believe Fords claim. But Kavanaugh proved himself to be a liar, which itself is evidence against him, and in his own testimony, he proved himself to be unfit to sit on the Supreme Court for life which is why he shouldn't have been confirmed in my opinion..

The sad thing is that it is probably true. He can't remember what he did 5 minutes ago.
That doesn't mean it didn't happen.

Originally posted by Mountain Man View PostI agree, Joe's "I don't remember" defense is completely believable. The problem for his defenders, though, is that while it's possible he's innocent, at least in this one instance, nobody can say, "That doesn't sound like something Joe would have done," because it totally sounds like something Joe would have done.

"Do you remember her? Do you remember any, any types of complaints that she might have made?" Brzezinski asked.
"I don't remember any type of complaint she may have made. It was 27 years ago and I don't remember- nor does anyone else that I'm aware of. And the fact is, I don't remember. I don't remember any complaint ever having been made," Biden responded.

But I think the most telling quote from Joe is that he doesn't want to release his Senate record because he's afraid his political opponents will use it as "fodder" against him. Makes you wonder what else is in there that he wants to keep hidden.Some may call me foolish, and some may call me odd
